All Saints Day
Mass will be on Tuesday, November 1, 2022, at 12:00 Noon in the Church.
We won't be able to live stream the mass.
Devotion to the Saints, those holy men, and women, who have influenced the Church and the world, dates from the earliest ages of our Christian tradition and has been a source of inspiration and help for the People of God. The celebration of the Saints, according to the Fathers of the Vatican II acts “as a source of devotion and nourishment for personal prayer”. The veneration of the Saints has been and will remain an important part of the life of the Church. In fact, the Constitution on the Church of Vatican II speaks at great length about the veneration of the Saints. It views them as examples of faith and helpers to Church unity:
"When we look at the lives of those who have faithfully followed Christ, we are inspired with a new reason for seeking the City that is to come and at the same time we are shown a most safe path by which among the vicissitudes of this world, in keeping with the state in life and condition proper to each of us, we will be able to arrive at perfect union with Christ, that is, perfect holiness. In the lives of those who, sharing in our humanity, are however more perfectly transformed into the image of Christ, God vividly manifests His presence and His face to men. He speaks to us in them, and gives us a sign of His Kingdom, to which we are strongly drawn, having so great a cloud of witnesses over us and such a witness to the truth of the Gospel."

We celebrate all Saints, we also celebrate all baptized and the saints that live next door.
"I like to contemplate the holiness present in the patience of God’s people: in those parents who raise their children with immense love, in those men and women who work hard to support their families, in the sick, in elderly religious who never lose their smile. In their daily perseverance, I see the holiness of the Church. Very often, it is a holiness found in our next-door neighbors, those who, living in our midst, reflect God’s presence. We might call them “the middle class of holiness”."

All Souls Day
Mass will be on Wednesday, November 2, 2022, at 12:00 Noon in the Church.
We especially remember those who passed into eternal life this past year in the parish.
In the transept, a book of remembrance is available to write the names of your friends, family, or anyone else who have passed into eternal life.
You may also use the All Souls envelope and place their names on that. The envelopes will be placed on the altar.
